Description

The invention relates to organopolysiloxane gels containing polyether radicals, to processes for their preparation and to their use in cosmetic formulations.

Organopolysiloxane gels can be prepared by crosslinking an unsaturated organopolysiloxane resin with an Si-H-containing organopolysiloxane, also referred to below as Si-H-functional crosslinker, in the presence of a diluent.

Crosslinks are compounds of polymer chains in a three-dimensional network. They can be considered as long-chain branches that are so numerous as to form a continuous insoluble network or gel.

Organopolysiloxane networks are often prepared via platinum catalyzed hydrosilylation reactions. Frequently, an Si-H-containing organopolysiloxane and a vinyl-functional organopolysiloxane are reacted with each other. An essential prerequisite for the construction of a 3-dimensional network is that at least one of the two components, the Si-H-containing organopolysiloxane or the vinyl-functional organopolysiloxane has more than two functionalities per molecule in the middle composition.

The platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation reaction provides the advantage in forming organopolysiloxane networks that no by-products are formed, and that linkage sites and network architecture are narrowly defined.

The most important reason for the use of Organopolysiloxangelen in cosmetic applications are the sensory benefits achieved thereby, in particular the improvement of the skin feel of cosmetic formulations. In addition, organopolysiloxane gels serve as thickeners in cosmetic formulations.

US Pat. No. 6,423,322 B1 and WO 2013/156390 A1 disclose organopolysiloxane gels which can be readily prepared by hydrosilylation reaction of a specific vinyl-functional MQ resin with an Si-H containing organopolysiloxane in the presence of a diluent and a small amount of platinum hydrosilylation catalyst. The resulting gels do not draw threads and are easily homogenized to a stable cream or paste. A disadvantage of such gels, however, is that they have only a low compatibility with polar organic substances, alcohols or water. As a result, such gels are also unable to absorb important cosmetic ingredients, such as water or glycerol in sufficient quantities and show no thickening effect in aqueous or alcoholic mixtures. As a result, such gels are also not or only partially suitable for the production of water-based or alcohol-based cosmetic products.

WO 2013/156390 A1 also teaches the addition of a Si-H-containing organopolysiloxane having a particularly low content of Si-bonded H atoms to improve skin feel, with particularly advantageous properties to be achieved, if only a particularly low Si-H-containing organopolysiloxane Si-bonded H atoms is used.

EP 1 132 430 A1 discloses organopolysiloxane gels produced by the hydrosilylation reaction of a particular, vinyl functional MQ resin and a polyoxyethylated or polyoxypropylated allyl alcohol with a high Si-H containing organopolysiloxane having about 0.5 wt.% Of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in the presence of decamethylcyclopentasiloxane as a diluent and a small amount of platinum hydrosilylation catalyst. The resulting gels do not draw threads and can be homogenized to a stable cream or paste. The use of a high Si-H-containing crosslinker with 0.54 wt .-% Si-bonded hydrogen is described as being particularly preferred. The use of a less functional crosslinker in minor amounts should be possible.
However, a significant disadvantage of these organopolysiloxane gels is, in particular, that the skin feel produced is not ideal for cosmetic applications. Due to the relatively high proportion of vinyl-functional MQ resin, such gels are also comparatively expensive to produce. In addition, it has been found that no suitable gels can be made when linear organopolysiloxanes are used as diluents. However, linear organopolysiloxanes are gaining increasing importance in cosmetic formulations after cyclic organopolysiloxanes, such as those described in EP 1 132 430 A1 Organopolysiloxane gels used, due to their potentially toxic effect are increasingly avoided in cosmetic formulations.

The object was to provide Organopolysiloxangele with improved properties, in particular with an improved skin feel, which do not have the disadvantages mentioned above. The object is achieved by the invention.

It has surprisingly been found that particularly advantageous gels are obtained when the organopolysiloxane gel is prepared using a mixture of an Si-H-containing crosslinker having a particularly low Si-H content and a Si-H-containing crosslinker having a higher Si-H content. Content is prepared and also a polyoxyalkylated allyl alcohol is covalently bonded to the Organopolysiloxangel. Such gels have an excellent skin feel in combination with cyclic and linear organopolysiloxanes, have improved compatibility with polar organic substances, and are even capable of absorbing highly hydrophilic liquids such as water or glycerine without losing the viscous gel structure. Surprisingly, it has been found that organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention can take up more than 10% by weight of water, based on the total weight of the organopolysiloxane gel, if less than 0.3% by weight of a polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b) for example, a polyethylene glycol monoallyl ether having about 10 oxyethylene units (as Polyglycol A 500, commercially available from Fa. Clariant) is covalently bound to the Organopolysiloxangel.

Surprisingly, it has been found that the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention based on the mixture of (2) and (2 ') have significantly better sensory properties, in particular a better skin feel, than gels based on an organopolysiloxane with a relatively high content of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms, as described in US Pat EP 1 132 430 A1 or gels based on an organopolysiloxane having a very low content of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms, such as WO 2013/156390 A1 teaches. The mixture of (2) and (2 ') is defined by the weight ratio of (2) to (2') being preferably 0.2 to 20, preferably 0.5 to 10, particularly preferably 1.1 to 10 is.

Preferred examples of polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohols (1b) are those of the general formula

A particularly preferred example of a polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b) is polyethylene glycol monoallyl ether having about 10 oxyethylene units, for example, as polyglycol A 500 in the Fa. Clariant.

The formula (IV) is understood to mean that o - (OCH ₂ CH ₂ ) - and p groups - [OCH ₂ CH (CH ₃ )] - may be distributed in any way in the alcohol molecule (1b).

Unsaturated organopolysiloxane resins (1a) and polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohols (1b) in quantities of preferably 4.5 to 0.1 mol, preferably 2 to 0.8 mol, particularly preferably 1.8 to 1.1 mol, are in the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention , Hydrocarbon radical with aliphatic CC multiple bond per mole of Si-bonded Hydrogen in Si-H functional organopolysiloxanes (2) and (2 '), with the proviso that the proportion by weight of the polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b) is 0.01-3% by weight, preferably 0.03-0, 29 wt .-% based on the total weight of Organopolysiloxangels is. Surprisingly, it has been found that the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention, which contain a combination of the Si-H functional organopolysiloxanes (2) and (2 ') with a polyoxyalkylated allyl alcohol, even more than 10 wt .-% water, based on the total weight of Organopolysiloxangels , when less than 0.3 wt .-% of a polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b), for example, a Polyethylenglykolmonoallylethers with about 10 oxyethylene units (such as Polyglycol A 500, commercially available from the company Clariant) covalently to the Organopolysiloxane is bound. An essential advantage of the invention is thus that the amount of polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b) can be reduced by the combination with the Si-H functional organopolysiloxanes (2) and (2 '). This is very important because not only is the polyoxyalkylated allyl alcohol comparatively expensive, it is also made from extremely toxic raw materials.

The ratio by weight of MQ resin to Si-H-containing organopolysiloxane in the in EP 1 132 430 A1 Organopolysiloxane gels disclosed range from 9 to 7. The high proportion of comparatively expensive resin renders these gels comparatively expensive. In the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention, the ratio by weight of unsaturated organopolysiloxane resins (1) to the mixtures of the Si-H-containing organopolysiloxanes (2) and (2 ') is preferably in the range from 3 to 0.1, preferably in the range from 2.5 to 0 , 1, more preferably in the range 2.0 to 0.1, which is why the gels of the invention are significantly cheaper to produce.

Preferred organic diluents have a viscosity in the range of 0.5 to 200 mm ² / s (25 ° C), with such diluents having a boiling point in the range of 50 ° C to 300 ° C being particularly preferred.

Numerous mixtures of diluents may be used which are limited only to those compositions in which no phase separation occurs after preparation of the organopolysiloxane gel of the present invention.

The preparation of the gel is easy to carry out. In general, all ingredients except the catalyst are added, stirred slowly until the unsaturated organopolysiloxane resin has dissolved, and then the catalyst is added with continuous stirring. The composition may be left at room temperature until a gel has formed or heated. Preferably, the composition is heated to a temperature between 50 ° C and 130 ° C, and preferably between 70 ° C and 120 ° C, until the mixture gels or solidifies. The gelation preferably takes place within ten hours, preferably within three hours. Organopolysiloxane gels which are suitable for use in cosmetic formulations are obtained.
In a particularly preferred process, the mixture of the Si-H-functional crosslinkers (2) and (2 ') and the polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b) are mixed in the first part of the gel preparation step. Subsequently, the catalyst is added with continuous stirring. The mixture is preferably heated to a temperature between 50 ° C and 130 ° C, preferably between 70 ° C and 120 ° C, and stirred for 1 to 480 minutes, preferably 1 to 240, more preferably 5 to 60 minutes at this temperature. Thereafter, in the second step of gel preparation, the unsaturated organopolysiloxane resin (1a) is added with stirring and further stirred until the mixture gels or solidifies. The gelation preferably takes place within ten hours, preferably within three hours. Organopolysiloxane gels which are suitable for use in cosmetic formulations are obtained.
In an alternative, particularly preferred process, in the first part of the step gel preparation, only one of the two Si-H-functional crosslinkers and the polyoxyalkylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b) is mixed. In the second part of the gel preparation step, the second Si-H-functional crosslinker is added before, during or after the addition of the unsaturated organopolysiloxane resin (1a).

In an optional second process step, the organopolysiloxane gel of the present invention obtained in the first process step is homogenized to a creamy consistency using standard high shear mixing techniques. This can be done by intensive mixing and dispersion in rotor-stator agitators, colloid mills, high-pressure homogenizers, microchannels, membranes, jet nozzles and the like, or by means of ultrasound. Homogenizers and methods are eg in Ullmann's Encyclopaedia of Industrial Chemistry, CD-ROM Edition 2003, Wiley-VCH Verlag , described under the keyword "emulsions".

In an optional third process step, an additional amount of diluent is added to the organopolysiloxane gel obtained after the first or optional second process steps. This makes it possible, starting from a "base gel" obtained in the first process step, to produce a multiplicity of different gels which vary in their consistency and their property profile over a wide range. It is possible to use the same diluent which was used in the first process step, or a second diluent containing the previously described herein as a diluent. Alternatively, any of the above-described diluents and / or an active body care or health care active or a body care or health care active ingredient admixture may be added with one or more of the diluents described herein with the proviso that none Phase separation occurs.

As used herein, an "active ingredient for personal care or health care" means any compound or mixture of compounds known in the art as additives in personal care formulations, which are typically added to treat the hair or skin to form a cosmetic and personal care to achieve aesthetic or aesthetic benefit, any compound or mixture of compounds known in the art to achieve a pharmaceutical or medicinal benefit; any compound intended to provide pharmacological activity or other effect in the diagnosis, cure, alleviation, treatment or prevention of disease, or to influence the structure or any function of the body of a human or animal; and any compound which may undergo a chemical change in the manufacture of drug products and which may be in modified form in medicaments to produce the indicated efficacy or effect. Thus, an "active ingredient for personal care or health care" includes an active ingredient or active ingredient as generally referred to by the United States Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration, Title 21, Chapter I, of the Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 200 - 299 and parts 300-499, but is not limited thereto.

The active ingredients for personal care or health care are preferably selected from the group of fat- or oil-soluble vitamins, oil-soluble drugs, anti-acne agents, antibacterial agents, fungicidal agents, anti-inflammatory agents, psoriasis-controlling agents, anesthetics, antipruritics, anti-inflammatory agents and agents which Generally regarded as barrier films are particularly preferred, and oil-soluble UV absorber.

Useful active ingredients for use in step 3 of the method of the invention include fat and oil soluble vitamins. Useful oil-soluble vitamins include, but are not limited to, Vitamin A ₁ , RETINOL, C ₂ to C ₁₈ esters of RETINOL, Vitamin E, TOCOPHEROL, esters of Vitamin E, and mixtures thereof. RETINOL includes trans-RETINOL, 13-cis-RETINOL, 11-cis-RETINOL, 9-cis-RETINOL and 3,4-didehydro-RETINOl. The oil-soluble vitamin may be used in the composition according to the invention in amounts of from 0.01 to 50% by weight.

It should be noted that RETINOL is an International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient Name (INCI), awarded by The Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association (CTFA), Washington DC, for Vitamin A. Other suitable vitamins and the INCI names for the vitamins contemplated herein are RETINYL ACETATE, RETINYL PALMITATE, RETINYL PROPIONATE, a-TOCOPHEROL, TOCOPHERSOLAN, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE, TOCOPHERYLLINOLEATE, TOCOPHERYLNICOTINATE and TOCOPHERYL SUCCINATE.

Some examples of commercially available products suitable for use herein are vitamin A acetate, Fluka Chemie AG, Buchs, Switzerland; CIOVI-OX T-50, a vitamin E product of Henkel Corporation, La Grange, Illinois; COVI-OX T-70, another vitamin E product from Henkel Corporation, La Grange Illinois, and vitamin E acetate, a product of Roche Vitamins & Fine Chemicals, Nutley, New Jersey.

Representative examples of some suitable oil-soluble drugs that can be added as active ingredients in the third step of the invention are clonidine, scopolamine, propranolol, estradiol, phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride, ouabain, atropine, haloperidol, isosorbide, nitroglycerin, ibuprofen, ubiquinones, indomethacin, prostaglandins , Naproxen, salbutamol, guanabenz, labetalol, pheniramine, metrifonate and steroids.

Preferably, in a fourth process step, the organopolysiloxane gel obtained according to the first or optional second or optional third process step is homogenized to a creamy consistency using standard high shear mixing techniques. Suitable technologies for this are mentioned above. If an additional amount of diluent has been added in the optional third process step, this is homogeneously distributed in the gel in the fourth process step. The gel swells and changes its softness.

By "creamy" with respect to the gel is meant that the source gel has been sheared to a creamy consistency. The resulting creamy gel may be castable or relatively stiff, as the case may be. By the attribute "creamy", these sheared gels, which may be transparent or opaque, differ from the gels prepared directly by gelling the reactive ingredients.

Within the scope of this invention, "storage-stable" means that the organopolysiloxane gels do not separate into two or more phases within 3 months of storage at room temperature, more preferably within 6 months of storage at room temperature, and the softness of the gel in this period does not change significantly.

When mixing polar or hydrophilic solvents, such as water or glycerol, in the hydrophilically modified gels according to the invention, the solvent is first taken into the gel to form a single-phase, homogeneous mixture and when using glycerol solid creams or when using water gelatinous masses receive. If a certain amount of the polar or hydrophilic solvent is exceeded, a two-phase mixture of a white cream and a clear liquid is obtained, ie from a certain amount of the polar or hydrophilic solvent, the gel is "saturated" and takes no further amount of the corresponding polar or hydrophilic solvent more.
Herein, the gels according to the invention differ from emulsions which are stable to dilution, ie any amount of diluent can be added and a low-viscosity "milk" is formed. The gels according to the invention therefore also differ from so-called "self-emulsifying elastomer gels".

A significant advantage of the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention is their improved compatibility with polar or hydrophilic organic substances, for example glycerol, and even water. These important cosmetic ingredients are not miscible with conventional organopolysiloxane gels, or only in very small amounts. The organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention are capable of absorbing extremely polar substances such as water or glycerol while retaining the viscous gel structure and forming a single-phase, homogeneous mixture.
Due to their improved compatibility with polar and hydrophilic organic substances and even water, the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention also exhibit a thickening effect in water- or alcohol-based formulations and give such formulations a preferred silky feel on the skin.

1. (a) erfindungsgemäße Polyetherreste aufweisende Organopolysiloxangele und
2. (b) polare oder hydrophile Lösungsmittel.

The invention therefore relates to single-phase, homogeneous mixtures containing

1. (a) organopolysiloxane gels having polyether radicals according to the invention and
2. (b) polar or hydrophilic solvents.

Examples of polar or hydrophilic solvents are water, glycerol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol and mixtures thereof, with water and glycerol being particularly preferred.

The organopolysiloxane gels of the invention may absorb water in amounts of preferably at least 5% by weight, preferably at least 10% by weight, and preferably at most 400% by weight, preferably at most 200% by weight, based in each case on the total weight of the organopolysiloxane gels ,
Glycols may receive them in amounts of preferably at least 20% by weight, preferably at least 25% by weight, and preferably at most 600% by weight, preferably at most 300% by weight, based in each case on the total weight of the organopolysiloxane gels.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that due to the three-dimensional network structure of organopolysiloxane gels, the diluent capacity is generally limited and may vary depending on the network structure and composition. If the capacity for diluents is exceeded, the formation of a diluent phase next to a gel phase can be recognized. In the case of the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention, there is a general tendency that the absorption capacity of hydrophilic substances is higher for comparable gel formulations, when the degree of substitution with polyoxyalkylenated, terminally unsaturated alcohol (1b) is higher. This opens up the possibility of adapting and optimizing the hydrophilicity of the organopolysiloxane gel according to the invention in a targeted manner according to the requirement profile of the application.

Preferably, a hydrosilylation catalyst poison or an SiH quencher is added to the organopolysiloxane gel of the present invention to terminate the postcure caused by residual cross-linking hydrosilylation reactions occurring in the silicone elastomers. Exemplary of hydrosilylation catalyst poisons or SiH quenchers which are suitable for terminating post-cure are sulfur organic compounds. Other suitable compounds are in US 6,200,581 called. Preferred hydrosilylation catalyst poisons are mercaptoalkylorganopolysiloxanes, particularly preferred are mercaptopropyl-functional silsesquisiloxanes or mercaptopropyl-functional polyorganosiloxanes which are preferably used in amounts of 200 to 1.0 mol, preferably 50 to 1.5 mol, more preferably 20 to 2.0 mol, of mercapto groups per mol of platinum atoms. The addition of the hydrosilylation catalyst poison or the SiH quencher can be carried out arbitrarily in one or more of the said process steps.

The organopolysiloxane gels of the invention are particularly preferably suitable for cosmetic applications, and are therefore preferably used in cosmetic compositions. They are also suitable for other applications, for example for medical and technical applications.

The organopolysiloxane gels have particular value in personal care products. They can be gently spread on the skin and therefore can be used alone or blended with other personal care product ingredients to form a variety of personal care products.

Examples of personal care product ingredients are esters, waxes, oils and fats of animal or vegetable origin, fatty alcohols, fatty acids, alkyl esters of fatty acids, hydrocarbons and waxes, water, organic Solvents, perfumes, surfactants, oil-soluble vitamins, water-soluble vitamins, oil-soluble drugs, water-soluble drugs, UV absorbers, active pharmaceutical compounds and others.

In particular, the organopolysiloxane gels of the present invention are useful in antiperspirants and in doubling perspirants because they leave a dry feeling and do not cool the skin during evaporation. They are lubricious and improve the properties of skin creams, skin care lotions, moisturizers, facials such as facial hair. Acne or wrinkle removers, body and facial cleansers, bath oils, perfumes, colognes, sachets, sunscreens, preshave and aftershave lotions, liquid soaps, shaving soaps and shaving creams. They can be used in hair shampoos, hair conditioners, hair sprays, mousses, permanent waving, hair removing and cuticle coatings to improve shine and dry glide and provide conditioning benefits.

In cosmetics, they act as a distribution agent for pigments in make-ups, color cosmetics, foundations, blushes, lipsticks, lip balm, eyeliner, mascara, oil removers and color cosmetic removers. They are useful as delivery systems for oil-soluble active ingredients exemplified herein, e.g. Vitamins, drugs and UV absorbers suitable. When used in pencils, gels, lotions, creams, roll-ons, the elastomers give a dry, silky smooth feel. When incorporated in cosmetics and other skin care products, the elastomers impart a matting effect.

In addition, the organopolysiloxane gels exhibit a variety of advantageous properties, such as clarity, storage stability and ease of preparation. Therefore, they have a wide range of applications, in particular in antiperspirants, Deodorants, skin care products, in perfumes as a carrier and for hair conditioning, for example in Hair-Balm or Hair-Mask Conditioner.

The organopolysiloxane gels have utility beyond the personal care sector, including their use as filler or insulation material for electrical cables, soil or water barriers for soil stabilization, or as replacements for epoxy materials used in components in the electronics industry. They are also suitable as carriers for crosslinked silicone rubber particles. In these applications, they allow (i) the ease of incorporation of particles into such silicone or organic phases as sealants, paints, coatings, fats, adhesives, antifoams and cast resin compounds, and (ii) provide modified rheological, physical or energy absorbing properties Phases, either in their pure or in their final state, ready.

In addition, the organopolysiloxane gels are capable of acting as carriers for pharmaceuticals, biocides, herbicides, pesticides and other biologically active substances.

Further, the compositions find utility as additives for nonwoven cellulosic support substrates or nonwoven synthetic support substrates used in wet wipes such as wet wipes, wet paper towels, and wet towels generally marketed for personal hygiene and household cleaning purposes.

The organopolysiloxane gels of the invention may be used as carriers for the controlled and readily regulated release of a volatile active organic substance into the free atmosphere when mixed therewith. The Volatile substance may in particular be a perfume or an insecticide or a substance that repels insects.
In this use, the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention are widely used, for example in the finishing of fibers, textiles and fabrics made of cotton or synthetic fibers, fabrics, towels, paper towels toilet paper or paper wiper, such as napkins or kitchen roll, or nonwoven, for long-lasting, controlled scenting or insect repellent , The mixture of the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention and the volatile active organic substance can also be applied in washing machines and tumble dryers directly as such or as an additive to detergents and fabric softeners on fabrics and textiles.

The use of the organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention as a carrier for the controlled and easily regulated release of a volatile active organic substance finds particular application in the abovementioned cosmetic applications, where they can bring about an additional effect to the effect described there, for example by delivering a perfume in a controlled manner. The organopolysiloxane gels of the present invention can also be used in insect repellent preparations where they deliver an insecticide or an insect repelling substance. For example, such products can be applied directly to the skin or clothing.

In a further application, the mixture of the organopolysiloxane gels of the invention and the volatile organic active substance may be used for controlled scenting or insect repelling in confined spaces such as living spaces, business premises, toilets or vehicles such as buses and cars.

Gel preparation, general instructions (A and B)

After method A, a "base gel" is first prepared, which is diluted after gelation by adding a further amount of diluent. Method B differs from Method A basically in that the full amount of diluent is added from the beginning. There is no subsequent dilution of the gel obtained.
The hydrosilylation is carried out in a step H1 or in two consecutive steps H1 and H2.

Regulation A:

A 2000 ml reaction vessel made of glass is equipped with a condenser with attached nitrogen inlet, heating jacket, anchor stirrer and temperature control. The reaction vessel is purged with nitrogen for 5 minutes before starting the reaction. An appropriate amount of diluent, the Si-H containing crosslinker (s) for step H1 and the polyoxyethylated allyl alcohol are added. Subsequently, 5 ppm of hydrosilylation catalyst are added and the reaction mixture is heated at 95 ° C. for 1 h at a stirring speed of about 200 rpm. First, the optional Si-H-containing crosslinker for process step H2 and then the unsaturated organopolysiloxane resin is added and stirred until complete dissolution of the resin. 5 ppm hydrosilylation catalyst is added and the reaction mixture is stirred at 95 ° C for 2.5 hours at a stirring rate of about 200 rpm. The heating jacket is then removed and cooled to room temperature under reduced stirring speed (about 50 rpm) and catalyst poison is added. The resulting gel is homogenized while swirling for one minute with an ULTRA-TURRAX® T 50 at 6000 rpm. A "base gel" is obtained, which may have a creamy to firm or friable consistency and is suitable for use in cosmetic products.

For dilution, the desired amount of diluent is added and stirred at 50 rpm with the anchor agitator until the diluent has been completely absorbed by the gel (about 10 minutes). Then homogenize again with a ULTRA-TURRAX® T 50 under agitation for one minute at 6000 rpm. In this way, a storage-stable, creamy, transparent, translucent or opaque gel with a very smooth consistency, which is suitable for use in cosmetic products.

Regulation B:

A 2000 ml reaction vessel made of glass is equipped with a condenser with attached nitrogen inlet, heating jacket, anchor stirrer and temperature control. The reaction vessel is purged with nitrogen for 5 minutes before starting the reaction. The diluent, the Si-H containing crosslinker (s) for step H1 and the polyoxyethylated allyl alcohol are added. Subsequently, 5 ppm hydrosilylation catalyst is added and the reaction mixture is heated at 95 ° C. for 1 h at a stirring speed of about 200 rpm. First, the optional Si-H-containing crosslinker for process step H2 and then the unsaturated organopolysiloxane resin is added and stirred until complete dissolution of the resin. 5 ppm hydrosilylation catalyst is added and the reaction mixture is stirred at 95 ° C for 2.5 hours at a stirring rate of about 200 rpm. The heating jacket is then removed and cooled to room temperature under reduced stirring speed (about 50 rpm) and catalyst poison is added. The resulting gel is homogenized while panning for two minutes with an ULTRA-TURRAX® T 50 at 6000 rpm. In this way, a storage-stable, creamy, transparent, translucent or opaque gel with a very smooth consistency, which is suitable for use in cosmetic products.

Analytical Methods:

The viscosities of the organopolysiloxane gels were determined according to DIN EN ISO 3219 at shear rate 1 / s and 25 ° C.

The viscosity of the organopolysiloxanes, such as Si-H-containing crosslinkers, organopolysiloxane resins and polydimethylsiloxanes, were determined according to DIN 53019 in the linear range at 25 ° C.

The iodine value was determined according to DIN 53241-1 according to the method according to Wijs.

Gel permeation chromatography for the determination of the weight-average molecular weight Mw was carried out according to ISO 16014-1 and ISO 16014-3.

Example 1-8 and Comparative Example V1 - V9:

According to regulations A and B, a series of gels were prepared. The properties of the Si-H functional crosslinkers used in Examples and Comparative Examples are shown in Table 1. Crosslinkers 1 and 2 (Table 1) were added in Step H1, Crosslinker 3 (Table 1) was added in Step H2. The substances used, their amounts and the properties of the gels prepared are shown in Tables 2 to 4 below. <b> TABLE 1 </ b> - <b> PROPERTIES OF THE SI-H-CONTAINED NETWORK USED IN EXAMPLE 1 </ b> - <b> 8 and Comparative Examples V1 </ b> - <b> V9: </ b > No. Distribution a: (b + c) Sum a + b Viscosity (mm ² / s at 25 ° C) % H 1 2: 1 138 331 12:47 2 9: 1 60 58 12:14 3 55: 1 134 321 0026

Examples 1-5 are examples of the invention gels in which a cross-linker groups in combination with a further crosslinking agent having a higher content of Si-H groups is used with a very low content of Si-H. The diluent selected was non-volatile, linear polydimethylsiloxane (5 mm ² / s at 25 ° C). Store-stable, creamy gels are obtained which are suitable for use in cosmetic formulations and can take up significant amounts of hydrophilic liquid.
Comparative Examples C1 and C2 show gels in the same diluent as used in Examples 1-5. However, Comparative Example C1 exclusively contains a crosslinker with a very high content of Si-H groups, as in EP 1 132 430 A1 disclosed. Comparative Example C2 contains a crosslinker with a very high content of Si-bonded hydrogen in combination with 20% by weight of a less functional crosslinker. In both cases, soft gels are obtained which are not storage stable and separate into two phases. Comparative Example C3 exclusively uses a crosslinker having a very low content of Si-H groups and was additionally prepared without the compound (1b) according to the invention, ie without a polyoxyethylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol. Such gels are in WO 2013/156390 A1 disclosed. Although the gel has a very silky feel on the skin, it can not absorb water or glycerol, as shown by comparative examples V10 (Table 5) and V12 (Table 7). The comparative examples V4 and V5 use only a crosslinker with a very low content of Si-H groups analogous to V3, but were prepared using a polyoxyethylated allyl alcohol.

Examples 6-8 are examples of gels in which a crosslinker having a very low content of Si-H groups in combination with another crosslinker having a higher content of Si-H groups is used. The diluent selected was volatile, linear polydimethylsiloxane (2 mm ² / s at 25 ° C.). Store-stable, creamy gels are obtained which are suitable for use in cosmetic formulations and can take up significant amounts of hydrophilic liquid.
Comparative Examples V6 and V7 show gels in the same diluent as used in Examples 6-8. However, Comparative Example C6 contains only a crosslinker with a very high content of Si-H groups, as in EP 1 132 430 A1 disclosed. Comparative Example V7 contains a crosslinker with a very high content of Si-bonded hydrogen in combination with 20% by weight of a less functional crosslinker. In both cases, a low-viscosity, flowing gel with an oily feel is obtained which is unsuitable for the applications described. Both gels are not storage stable and separate into two phases. Comparative Example C8 was prepared exclusively with a crosslinker having a very low content of Si-H groups and also without the compound (1b) according to the invention, ie without a polyoxyethylated, terminally unsaturated alcohol. Such gels are in WO 2013/156390 A1 disclosed. The gel is creamy, storage-stable and transparent and has a very silky feel to the skin, but can absorb neither water nor glycerol, as the comparative examples V11 (Table 6) and V13 (Table 8) show.
Comparative Example V9 was prepared analogously to V8 exclusively with a crosslinker having a very low content of Si-H groups but using a polyoxyethylated allyl alcohol. It forms a gel, which feels very oily and is not suitable for use in cosmetic products. <b> TABLE 4 - ELASTOMERGEL FORMULATIONS: </ b> Example: V6 V7 6 7 8th V8 V9 Dilution center l (g) Polydimethylsiloxane (2 mm ² / s) ¹ 760 770 760 760 1100 940 760 unsaturated silicone resin ² (g) 217 215 167 127 127 63 79 Si-H-containing crosslinker (g) No. 1 (0.46% H) 22 21.2 No.2 (0.14% H) 5.3 58 32.4 32.4 No. 4 (0.026% H) 14.3 78.6 78.6 117 159.2 Polyoxyethylated allyl alcohol (g) ³ 2.25 2.25 2.25 2.25 2.25 - 2.25 Platinum poison (g) Mercapto oil ⁴ 6, 9 6, 9 6, 9 6, 9 6, 9 3.23 6.9 Catalyst (ppm by weight) Platinum Complex ⁵ 5 + 5 5 + 5 5 + 5 5 + 5 5 + 5 5 5 + 5 Batch size (g) 1000 1,013.4 1001 1000 1000 1120 1000 Mole of vinyl / mole of Si-H 1.43 1.39 1.40 1.43 1.43 1.59 1.47 Viscosity (mPa * s at 25 ° C) 50000 23000 70000 215000 89000 86000 90000 properties creamy, soft creamy, soft creamy, stable creamy, stable creamy, stable creamy, stable oily, stable Appearance translucent transparent transparent transparent transparent transparent rent transparent storage Stable No No Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes % By weight polyoxyethylated allyl alcohol ⁶ 0.23 0.22 0.23 0.23 0.23 0 0.23 % By weight of elastomer in the "base gel" (in method A) - - - - 24 24 - Wt .-% elastomer in the finished gel 24 24 24 24 18 16 24 Used rule B B B B A A B ¹ PSF-2cSt Pure Silicone Fluid Dodecamethylpentasiloxane available from CLEARCO PRODUCTS CO.

Organopolysiloxane gels provide sensory benefits in cosmetic applications by improving the spreadability of the product to the skin and giving the product a silky smooth feel. For this purpose, a viscosity in the range of 75,000 to 120,000 mPa * s at 25 ° C. has proven particularly advantageous. Sensory properties were assessed by a trained group of 5 subjects.

Example 40: Sensory assessment

The panelists applied 0.05 g of the product to the cleaned forearm on a circular area of 20 cm ² and compared the organopolysiloxane gels or the skin care lotions prepared therefrom with regard to their distributability relative to one another. The application was made with the index finger or middle finger and a rotational speed of two revolutions per second. In total, 30 revolutions were performed. After a waiting time of 60 seconds, the residues of the organopolysiloxane gels were compared according to various criteria, for example, silkiness, oilyness, total indium, relative to one another.
For reasons of comparability, only organopolysiloxane gels or the skin care lotions prepared therefrom, which contain the same diluent, were compared with one another.

Examination of the non-inventive organopolysiloxane gels of Comparative Examples V1, V2, V6 and V7 showed that these materials can not pass through the test in a regular manner because no stable gels have been formed and the material has become unsuitable for flow after application the skin is already on its own. These organopolysiloxane gels were prepared using a very high level crosslinker to Si-H groups or using a mixture of a very high Si-bonded hydrogen crosslinker in combination with 20% by weight of a less functional crosslinker. Therefore, the comparative examples could not be evaluated in detail according to the above criteria. In general, comparative examples V1, V2, V6 and V7, in contrast to the gels according to the invention, did not leave a dull, silky film, but an oily, glossy layer, which was not considered silky by any of the panelists.

Sensory evaluation of the Organopolysiloxangele 6 and 8, and Comparative Example V9 with non-volatile, linear polydimethylsiloxane (5 mm ² / s at 25 ° C) as a diluent

The results of the comparative sensory tests are shown in Tables 17-20.

The organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention from Examples 6 and 8 were both rated as being very readily distributable by direct comparison and both show a very silky skin feel. Example 8 was rated slightly better in dispersibility than Example 6 (Table 17). <b> TABLE 17 - Sensory evaluation of the organopolysiloxane gels of Examples 6 and 8 </ b> example Viscosity [mPa * s at 25 ° C] Fixed content [%] spreadability silkiness 6 70000 24 + ++ 8th 89000 18 ++ ++

Example 6 was evaluated in direct comparison with Comparative Example V9. V9 was prepared using only a crosslinker with a very low content of Si-H groups. Although both Organopolysiloxangele were described as very well distributed. However, Example 6 was unanimously described as "silky" by the panelists, while Comparative Example V9 was unanimously described by all panelists as "oily" (Table 18). <b> TABLE 18 - Sensory evaluation of the organopolysiloxane gels of Example 6 and Comparative Example V9 </ b> example Viscosity [mPa * s at 25 ° C] Fixed salary [%] spreadability silkiness oiliness 6 70000 24 + ++ - V9 90000 24 + - ++

After direct comparison of the pure organopolysiloxane gels, the test was repeated with the skin care lotions prepared using the organopolysiloxane gels. The skin care lotion from Example 31 contains the organopolysiloxane gel according to the invention from example 6, the skin care lotion from example 32 contains the organopolysiloxane gel according to the invention from example 8 and the skin care lotion from comparative example V14 contains the non-inventive organopolysiloxane gel from comparative example V9.
It turns out that the results for the pure gels can be found very well in the skin care lotions made from them:
The skin care lotions of Examples 31 and 32 were both judged to be very readily dispersible by direct comparison and both show a very silky skin feel. Example 32 was in both features described as somewhat better than Example 31 (Table 19). <b> TABLE 19 - Sensory Evaluation of the Skin Care Lotions of Examples 31 and 32 </ b> example containing 8% of example spreadability silkiness 31 6 + + 32 8th ++ ++

Example 32 was evaluated in direct comparison with Comparative Example V14. Both skin care lotions were described as very well dispersible. However, while Example 32 was unanimously described as "silky" by the panelists, Comparative Example C14 was described by the majority of panelists as "oily" (Table 20). <b> TABLE 20 - Sensory Evaluation of the Skin Care Lotions of Example 32 and Comparative Example V14 </ b> example containing 8% of example spreadability silkiness oiliness 32 6 ++ ++ - V14 V9 ++ + ++

Sensory evaluation of the organopolysiloxane gels with volatile, linear polydimethylsiloxane (2 mm ² / s at 25 ° C) as a diluent

As described above, the non-inventive organopolysiloxane gels of Comparative Examples V1 and V2 were not included in this test due to the improper fluent consistency. Likewise, Comparative Examples V4 and V5, which were prepared analogously to V9 using only a crosslinker having a very low content of Si-H groups, were not evaluated in detail. The skin feel of Comparative Examples V4 and V5 is similar to that of Comparative Example C9 and was unanimously evaluated by all the investigators as "oily" and thus unsuitable.

In this comparative study, the panelists again compared the organopolysiloxane gels or the skin care lotions prepared therefrom with regard to their distributability relative to one another. After a waiting period of 60 seconds, the individual parameters (silkiness, oiliness) were not evaluated as such, but the examiners were to evaluate the sensory properties on the basis of their personal preferences, ie. H. they should name their personal favorite.

The two organopolysiloxane gels according to the invention from Example 2 and Example 5 were both described as being very readily dispersible. The skin feel of both Organopolysiloxangele was rated very good and silky. By personal preference, 3 out of 5 examiners opted for example 5. <b> TABLE 21 - Sensory evaluation of the organopolysiloxane gels of Examples 2 and 5 </ b> example Viscosity [mPa * s at 25 ° C] Fixed content [%] spreadability favourite 2 93000 22 ++ 2.5 5 106000 18 ++ 3.5

The investigators now evaluated various skin care lotions prepared using organopolysiloxane gels of the invention. The skin care lotion from example 28 contains the organopolysiloxane gel according to the invention from example 2, the skin care lotion from example 29 contains the organopolysiloxane gel according to the invention from example 3 and the skin care lotion from example 30 contains the organopolysiloxane gel from example 5 according to the invention.

Comparing Examples 28 and 29, both were rated as very well dispersible, with Example 29 being described as being somewhat more dispersible. The skin feel of both skin care lotions was rated as very good and silky. By personal preference, 3 out of 5 examiners opted for example 29. <b> TABLE 22 - Sensory Evaluation of the Skin Care Lotions of Examples 28 and 29 </ b> example containing 8% of example spreadability favourite 28 2 + 2.5 29 3 ++ 3.5

Similarly, Examples 28 and 30 were tested in comparison. Both were described as very well distributable. The skin feel of both skin care lotions was rated as very good and silky. By personal preference, 3 out of 5 examiners opted for example 30. <b> TABLE 23 </ b> - <b> Sensory Evaluation of the Skin Care Lotions of Examples 28 and 30 </ b> example containing 8% of example spreadability favourite 28 2 ++ 2.5 30 5 ++ 3.5
